After a few unsuccessful forays to Santapogue Creek in West Babylon to see the Eurasian Wigeon discovered on the Captree CBC, I finally observed the bird this morning on the east side of the mouth of the creek. The bird was in the company of a few American Wigeon feeding along the edge of the broken concrete that forms part of the southwestern border of the Bergen Pt. Sewage Treatment Plant, as viewed from the west side of the creek at Venetian Shores Town Park. The looks at the bird were mediocre, and a scope was necessary to locate the bird.
